Wild adventure builds character
Hey, Majesty 2 is coming out in two weeks? Didn’t that get cancelled like seven years ago?
Well, hey, I was a big fan of the original Majesty, so I can’t complain. Majesty, for those who never played it, was an RTS very much in the old Warcraft vein, but without the picky micromanagement — you can’t control the units directly, so clearly you never have to manage a hundred of them at the same time. Instead, you provide economic incentives for them, and they do their own thing on their own. It was kind of a new idea, and it was refreshing and fun. The art and music were bright and cheery, too; nice to play a fantasy game that wasn’t entirely based on book five of Lord of the Rings. So I liked it; it was easy to play (though not necessarily easy to win), it was cheerful, it was fun, and an acquaintance of mine was in the voice cast, which makes me laugh every time I hear the rangers speak.
